5/22/08 Note: The decrease used in the skirt results in an asymmetrical line of stitches curving around the left side of both the front and the back. It also gives an asymmetrical dip to the hemline. I left that as is because I liked the look, but it could be “fixed” with a simple running stitch with yarn on the wrong side that follows the line of decreases--pulling the yarn will pull up on the hemline.
